@Karin DiMauroI've received some material in the mail from agents recently touting their 2013 performances.

IE they tout extremely high returns, but the structure of the deal most of the GB and AU folks can't describe..

You have many radio shows in LA touting turn key in some form..

Tell us about the deal....price points.....rehab costs and what you're doing....your market is one that gets a lot of play on various sites online touting high yield deals but I've never done anything there.

Used to go to UT a lot to play rugby against their team.

The CDPE group (Charfen) does a great job of marketing themselves, and like to tout special access to lenders, expedited processe, blah blah blah.

So its willing buyer willing seller or in the case of many un educated buyer getting sold a marketing line by a LA based marketing company that has no financial interest in the home and could not help you if something goes wrong other than words of advice as they only tout the deals from TK companies that will pay them end of story..

On the one hand, it's touted as the easiest and least expensive strategy to start with; then we find out how hard it is to actually do, and how few investors are making any real money doing it (except for the gurus, if you believe them).  

I see that all the time I guess I have not seen that class that touts this as a big money maker

I also worried about grip strip seams in bathrooms because they are touted as water resistant, not waterproof.We then decided to try Traffic Master Allure Ultra Resilient Vinyl Planks, click together type with a wood design, in two kitchens and one laundry room.
